There is no doubt in my mind that Limbaugh is a huge talent, so was the Pied Piper of Hamelin.

Limbaugh is also kind of a star maker. When he started berating Hillary several years ago, her political prominence blossomed.

Most progressives enjoy viewing and considering the complexities of real issues from different perspectives, instead of having their ideas spoonfed to them for 4 hours a day.

4 hours a day? Who is giving his ideas for 4 hours a day?

Really! Most of them tape it and then play the whole thing back again after the live show is over...

A political personality has to be slick,to be approved by at least 80% of his own people & hopefully by up to 50% of his political adversaries...

Clinton ( Bill) ,the King of Slick,is close to achieving that status.

If Limebaugh ever manages
80% approval from Repubs,
50% of Indies
30% of Dems,

then he will be very succesful..

Many do. But his show is only 3 hours a day, not 4.

Isn't that amusing. Somebody (you) making things up as he goes about someone who he says is makiing thiings up as he goes. Your guess (and at least you admit you woefully inadequate knowledge of the subject, forcing you to guess), is WRONG.

Rushed is cherished on virtually every continent and his name is a household word.

Anyway, good luck to you, mate.
